IN PEACE WITH YOURSELF -
Full acceptance, meditations, several silent days, healing, being, fun.
450€ Full board and program for 9 nights and 8 days (405€ for undergraduate students). Spiritual awakening retreat with Ivan Bavcevic in Peace Valley Croatia. Saturday, April 13th to Easter Sunday, April 21st
During these 9 days of the Easter week, which signifies not only the spiritual rebirth, but also the waking up of nature and life after long winter sleep, the participants will be guided and pointed to the space of pure being where there always rests peace and to the understanding of universal laws of Life in order to align with its flow.
In this Easter retreat we will go through the process of allowing the Highest Consciousness to guide us, to provide and care for us, to carry us and bring to us everything we need. We will be letting go of our attachments to the personal identity and the ego terrorist, to our beliefs and attitudes, to past memories and the worries about the future. We will learn and practice the surrender to the Highest part of us and to flow with the omnipotent and omniscient intelligence of Life.
Retreat details:
Accommodation: In dormitories with 2-6 people and shared bathrooms.
Food: full board (3 meals a day + teas and coffees during the day) vegetarian meals prepared in our own kitchens from many local ingredients
Program: 4-5 hours of spiritual and healing program a day + volunteering team activities on the property + learning of the local medicinal herbs and preparation of certain products.

We came out of hibernation for a trip to the lake after nap time! I’ve never seen ice on a 60° day before but the lake was still mostly frozen so Maddy girl and I had a ball slipping and sliding on the ice together. Also: ✨ NOTHING will deter her from saying hello to a puppy...nothing.
✨ She ADORES walking over bridges (and can say the word)
✨ She knows the word “duck” and telling her that she’s actually pointing to a goose is pointless ✨ She LOVES adventuring by herself but clings to my hand when people get close to her
✨ I want more photos of the two of us together - a lot more
✨ Watching her play and explore during golden hour feels like magic
The next few days are going to be beautiful! I love winter hibernation but this warm up is a very welcome change of pace. 🥰

SELF-SACRIFICE.
The roof of your house of self-realization.
To say immediately, sacrifice in this context does not mean suffering, misery or any kind of self torture. It is jus the highest expression of work and action for the benefit of humanity, for the higher good.
It means that we are willing to sacrifice the unnecessary, the painful, the heavy and the burdensome from our life and psyche, in order to provide space for what is really beneficial, light, inspiring and useful for our own expansion and the evolution of mankind.
We always sacrifice something for something else. Right now you are sacrificing your precious time to be reading this post in stead of something fashionable or commercial. When you attend a spiritual retreat you also sacrifice everything else you could be doing instead.
The question is not whether you do do sacrifice daily, but what it is that you sacrifice. Do you sacrifice your happiness for comfort, your health for money, your joy for security, your love for fear? Or do you sacrifice your time for spiritual awakening, your voice for singing, your actions for the service to people and the planet, your money for fun or helping others, your life for love?
Self-sacrifice in reality means sacrificing your attachments to the fruits of your labor, sacrificing your expectations for end results, your desire to posses and accumulate, to fight and resist the Flow of Life.
I have “sacrified” most of stupidity from my life and received rewards beyond belief. I have let go of idea that I am the one doing anything and realized that it is the Source of Creation who does everything. I abandoned the concept of ownership and accepted that I am just an earthly steward of what was temporarily given to me to guard. I have sacrified the little self (ego) so that the Real Self can live in this temple of a human body. - Ivan Bavcevic, 02.02.2019.

Beautiful memories of the happy spiritual family.
Yes, there are arguments and disagreements, there are misunderstandings and not listening to what is really said, there can be irritation and the sense of being overwhelmed with the proximity of others, but all that time there is deep caring, willingness to go into the core, not to let any stone unturned, to heal the past traumas that are impacting current relationships, the willingness to talk and really hear, to let go of wanting to be right.
There are plenty of hugs and laughter. Yes, there is so much laughter that our stomachs hurt and tears roll down the cheeks. There is warmth and a strange sense of belonging to these people with which you share no blood relations.
Can’t wait to have all the family members come together again! - Ivan Bavcevic, 17.01.2019.

A cycle of birth, death and rebirth.
A river that disappears into the ground and becomes a subterranean river is something very usual in the Karst mountain regions of Croatia. River Dretulja springs out at the foot of Kapela mountain as a beautiful green transparent little lake and after some 10 kilometers dives into the ground in the Peace Valley only to spring back again behind another hill a few kilometers away as the river Mreznica.
What a beautiful metaphor for our earthly existence! It is the same water flowing, visible and then invisible, only to be given a different name when it resurfaces. So are we, the same energy and the same consciousness flowing through Life, sometimes in form and sometimes formless. Sometimes visible and sometimes invisible. Every time we become visible and take form, we are given a new name and identity. We have a new role to play, new culture to enjoy, new religion to believe, new skin color to wear, new gender to appreciate and new talents to develop. Yes my dear, you were already those that you resent, that frighten you, or that you envy for their fortune. You were already a fanatic member of the Catholic inquisition, a fanatic Islamic terrorist, a colonialist, a communist, a capitalist, a nun, a billionaire, an impoverished cripple, a prostitute, a saint, a mother and a father, a farmer and a movie star. Heck, even a porn star with enough sex experience to last you ten lifetimes! There is nothing you were not and nothing you will not be. It is all you, the same water, the same Consciousness, flowing and appearing and disappearing. I invite you to remember. Remember who you are and you will re-member with your other members. - Ivan Bavcevic, 16.01.2019.

Our studio in the open for recording videos and meditations. What a blessing to be in the Peace Valley! Nature just gives and gives beyond what we could recreate artificially. I am so happy and grateful that we can give it forward to hundreds and thousands of people in all the countries where we work and in three different languages directly without translation (Croatian, Spanish and English). We are open to all the people of good Will who want to participate in this mission of global awakening, as we are in need of many expertise. It’s just easier with a good team! Why would otherwise the Source create so many of us!

Tonight made enough pancakes for the whole street, literally! Haven’t done that in a while and really missed it. Using two pans simultaneously I didn’t even count the number of pancakes that turned out. The feeling was great. You know when you’re all at the table together taking pancakes and putting chocolate or jam on them, and you have no fear they will run out. That is abundance! No worrying if there will be enough. The inner child was fully content! I can rest with hands behind my head.
And the comment about feeding the whole street was not exaggerated since out of 35 houses only 3 are inhabited and we are all friends 😄😋. What is abundance for your inner child?

Magic is all around. Just open your perception and see it. Sometimes you don’t even need to go out! But if you do, honor the Nature with your presence and your senses fully aware of the wonder that it offers. Please, talk less, immerse yourself more. Listen, smell, touch, see and feel. Breath in the air and the beauty. Let the tears flow out. Let the emotion come out. Let Life enjoy itself.
We are so blessed at the Peace Valley with natural beauty, with water, forests, animals and plants. We honor it with our daily wonder and gratitude. Life is the happiest when we give it gratitude by enjoying in what it offers. Find a way to enjoy what you’re given. Life will respond in abundance.
